Exod 29:1 “And this is the task you shall do to them to set them apart to
serve Me as priests: Take one young bull and two rams, perfect ones,
Exod 29:2 and unleavened bread, and unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and
unleavened wafers anointed with oil – make these of wheat flour.
Exod 29:3 “And you shall put them in one basket and bring them in the
basket, along with the bull and the two rams.
Exod 29:4 “Then you shall bring Aharon and his sons to the door of the Tent
of Meeting, and wash them with water.
Exod 29:5 “And you shall take the garments, and shall put on Aharon the
long shirt, and the robe of the shoulder garment, and the shoulder garment,
and the breastplate, and shall gird him with the embroidered band of the
shoulder garment,
Exod 29:6 and shall put the turban on his head, and shall put the set-apart
sign of dedication on the turban,
Exod 29:7 and shall take the anointing oil, and pour it on his head and anoint
him.
Exod 29:8 “Then you shall bring his sons and put long shirts on them,
Exod 29:9 and shall gird them with girdles – Aharon and his sons – and put
the turbans on them. And the priesthood shall be theirs for an everlasting law.
So you shall ordain Aharon and his sons.
Exod 29:10 “And you shall bring near the bull before the Tent of Meeting,
and Aharon and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the bull.
Exod 29:11 “And you shall slaughter the bull before יהוה, by the door of the
Tent of Meeting,
Exod 29:12 and take some of the blood of the bull and put it on the horns of
the altar with your finger, and pour all the blood beside the base of the altar.
Exod 29:13 “And you shall take all the fat that covers the entrails, and the
appendage on the liver, and the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, and
burn them on the altar.
Exod 29:14 “But the flesh of the bull, and its skin and its dung, you shall
burn with fire outside the camp. It is a sin offering.
Exod 29:15 “And take one ram, and Aharon and his sons shall lay their
hands on the head of the ram,
Exod 29:16 and you shall slaughter the ram, and you shall take its blood and
sprinkle it all around on the altar.
Exod 29:17 “And cut the ram in pieces, and wash its entrails and its legs,
and place them upon its pieces and on its head.
Exod 29:18 “And you shall burn the entire ram on the altar. It is a burnt
offering to יהוה, it is a sweet fragrance, an offering made by fire to יהוה.
Exod 29:19 “And you shall take the second ram, and Aharon and his sons
shall lay their hands on the head of the ram,
Exod 29:20 and you shall slaughter the ram, and take some of its blood and
put it on the tip of the right ear of Aharon and on the tip of the right ear of his
sons, on the thumb of their right hand and on the big toe of their right foot, and
sprinkle the blood all around on the altar.
Exod 29:21 “And you shall take some of the blood that is on the altar, and
some of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it on Aharon and on his garments, on
his sons and on the garments of his sons with him. And he and his garments
shall be set-apart, and his sons and the garments of his sons with him.
Exod 29:22 “And you shall take the fat of the ram, and the fat tail, and the fat
that covers the entrails, and the appendage on the liver, and the two kidneys
and the fat on them, and the right thigh – it is for a ram of ordination –
Exod 29:23 and one loaf of bread, and one cake made with oil, and one thin
cake from the basket of the unleavened bread that is before יהוה.
Exod 29:24 “And you shall put all these in the hands of Aharon and in the
hands of his sons, and you shall wave them – a wave offering before יהוה.
Exod 29:25 “Then you shall take them from their hands and burn them on the
altar as a burnt offering, as a sweet fragrance before יהוה. It is an offering
made by fire to יהוה.
Exod 29:26 “And you shall take the breast of the ram of Aharon’s ordination
and wave it – a wave offering before יהוה, and it shall be your portion.
Exod 29:27 “And from the ram of ordination you shall set apart the breast of
the wave offering which is waved, and the thigh of the contribution which is
raised, of that which is for Aharon and of that which is for his sons.
Exod 29:28 “And it shall be from the children of Yisra’ĕl for Aharon and his
sons by a law forever, for it is a contribution. And it is a contribution from
the children of Yisra’ĕl from their peace offerings – their contribution to יהוה.
Exod 29:29 “And the set-apart garments of Aharon are for his sons after him,
to be anointed in them and to be ordained in them.
Exod 29:30 “The priest from his sons in his place, puts them on for seven
days, when he enters the Tent of Meeting to attend in the set-apart place.
Exod 29:31 “And take the ram of ordination and cook its flesh in a set-apart
place.
Exod 29:32 “And Aharon and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram, and the
bread that is in the basket, by the door of the Tent of Meeting,
Exod 29:33 and they shall eat those offerings with which the atonement was
made, to ordain them, to set them apart. But let a stranger not eat them,
because they are set-apart.
Exod 29:34 “And if any of the flesh of the ordination offerings, or of the
bread, be left over until the morning, then you shall burn up what is left over.
It is not eaten, because it is set-apart.
Exod 29:35 “And so you shall do to Aharon and his sons, according to all I
have commanded you. Seven days you shall ordain them,
Exod 29:36 and prepare a bull each day as a sin offering for atonement. And
you shall cleanse the altar when you make atonement for it, and you shall
anoint it to set it apart.
Exod 29:37 “For seven days you shall make atonement for the altar, and set
it apart. And the altar shall be most set-apart – whatever touches the altar is
to be set-apart.
Exod 29:38 “And this is what you prepare on the altar: two lambs, a year
old, daily, continually.
Exod 29:39 “Prepare the one lamb in the morning, and the other lamb you
prepare between the evenings,
Exod 29:40 and one-tenth of an ĕphah of flour mixed with one-fourth of a hin
of pressed oil, and one-fourth of a hin of wine as a drink offering, with the
one lamb.
Exod 29:41 “And prepare the other lamb between the evenings. And with it
prepare the grain offering and the drink offering, as in the morning, for a
sweet fragrance, an offering made by fire to יהוה –
Exod 29:42 a continual burnt offering for your generations at the door of the
Tent of Meeting before יהוה, where I shall meet with you to speak with you.
Exod 29:43 “And there I shall meet with the children of Yisra’ĕl, and it shall
be set apart by My esteem.
Exod 29:44 “And I shall set apart the Tent of Meeting and the altar. And
Aharon and his sons I set apart to serve as priests to Me.
Exod 29:45 “And I shall dwell in the midst of the children of Yisra’ĕl and
shall be their Elohim.
Exod 29:46 “And they shall know that I am יהוה their Elohim, who brought
them up out of the land of Mitsrayim, to dwell in their midst. I am יהוה their
Elohim.
